Gareth Neal is a Dalston-based furniture maker with a unique approach to design – through material inventiveness, curiosity & reinterpretation, he has helped to shape a new era within the context of design & craft.

Gareth Neal’s furniture design practice was established in 2002 and is currently located in the creative heart of East London. Neal specialises in the production of unique pieces, which are exclusively designed for individual clients and companies. His practice combines the technical modes of 3D computer drawing and CNC processes, with the intricacy of professional craftsmanship.

In collaboration with The New Craftsmen, Gareth is in the process of creating a new series of furniture inspired by the exploration of materiality & processes unique to different regions of the British Isles.

Gareth’s work ranges from individual pieces for the international collectors market, to bespoke commissions for private clients.

Gareth’s practice seeks a reconsideration of contemporary furniture design, questioning our perceptions of history and the contemporary, the material and immaterial. The work is positioned at an intersecting point between art, design and craft.
